About Tebibytes
A tebibyte (TiB) = 2⁴⁰ bytes = 1,099,511,627,776 bytes (IEC 80000-13). Storage management tools (Hadoop HDFS, Ceph, ZFS) report in TiB. A 16-drive NAS with 20 TB drives in RAID 6 has ≈252 TiB usable. RAID 5 rebuild at 200 MB/s for a 16 TiB drive takes ≈25 hours (risk window). Cloud archive storage (S3 Glacier) costs ≈$0.001/GB-month. 1 TiB = 2⁴⁰ bytes = 1,024 GiB.
About Kibibits
A kibibit (Kibit) = 2¹⁰ = 1,024 bits (IEC 80000-13) - the binary counterpart to the kilobit. Defined to eliminate ambiguity between 1,000-bit and 1,024-bit 'kilobits'. Used in FPGA/ASIC block RAM sizing (a 32 Kibit block RAM = 4,096 bytes) and JEDEC DRAM specs. RSA key lengths (e.g. '4096-bit') are exact counts, unaffected by the kib/kb distinction. 1 Kibit = 1,024 bits = 128 bytes.
